In this episode of BrickCast, I’m diving headfirst into hyperspace because folks—it’s Star Wars overload in the best way possible. We’re talking May the 4th, the sacred holiday of the LEGO galaxy, and this year’s wave of sets is coming in hot. From fresh BrickHeadz to helmets, starships, and a certain bounty hunter you might’ve heard of, this episode is your full rundown of what’s about to drop, how much it’ll cost you, and which ones deserve prime real estate on your display shelf. But hold onto your lightsabers, because that’s just the beginning. We’ve also got a surprise addition to the galactic lineup: the debut of a brand-new buildable droid from Rogue One—the incredibly lovable, endlessly sarcastic K-2S0 (yep, the one who could roast you in six languages). And let me tell you, this thing is stunning. Sharp details, slick design, and that perfect "don’t mess with me" energy. So why, you ask, is this amazing new droid not being released as part of the May the 4th celebration? Why is it being launched in stealth mode? That’s the mystery I’ll be uncovering in this episode—along with how, when, and where you can get your hands on what’s sure to be an instant fan favorite. But if Star Wars isn’t your thing (first off, are you okay?), don’t worry—I’ve got you covered, too. We’re shifting gears halfway through the episode and heading into calmer territory with the lush and lovely world of LEGO Botanicals. That’s right, new sets are blooming this summer, and whether you have a green thumb or just like the idea of plants that never die, you’ll want to hear what LEGO has in store. Trust me, these new additions might just be more cheerful than that happy little desk plant you keep forgetting to water. And of course, we’re saving a juicy one for the very end. I’ve got a fresh new rumor that’s got castle fans buzzing—and it’s got everything: knights, horses, towering stone walls, and possibly, just maybe, the return of a fan-favorite LEGO theme we’ve all been secretly hoping would come back. Is LEGO about to give us the medieval magic we’ve been waiting for, or is this just another hopeful whisper in the wind? I’ll break it all down and let you decide. So, whether you're here for the droids, the flowers, or the dreams of brick-built battlements, this episode is packed tighter than a Death Star trash compactor. Buckle up, tune in, and let's build something epic. As always, thank you for listening and supporting the show—and don’t forget to subscribe so you never miss a Monday or Wednesday drop.

Today, we’re putting on our fancy black turtlenecks, sipping espresso from tiny cups, and stepping into the sleek, minimalist world of LEGO Architecture. That’s right—this episode is a full-blown celebration of one of LEGO’s most refined, most adult-oriented, and most shelf-worthy themes. Whether you’re a longtime collector or someone who just appreciates a good skyline, this one’s for you. We’re going to explore it all—from the origins of the theme back in 2008, when LEGO decided to stop pretending these sets were for kids and just leaned into our inner architects, to some fascinating trivia, fun design facts, and a few eyebrow-raising moments in Architecture set history. Did you know the first LEGO Architecture set was designed by a real architect? Or that some sets in this theme have appreciated in value faster than you can say "Fallingwater"? No? Well, now you do. And there’s plenty more where that came from. But the main event today? Oh, it’s a big one. I’m ranking the top 10 LEGO Architecture sets of all time. That’s right—we’re diving into the full catalog of 62 sets released over 17 years and picking out the absolute best of the best. These are the builds that aren’t just cool to look at, they’re full-on love letters to design, engineering, and all-around LEGO ingenuity. From iconic skylines to legendary landmarks, these are the sets that nailed the balance between fun and finesse, between bricks and beauty. And let’s be clear—this is my totally subjective, probably controversial list. So, if your favorite didn’t make the cut, don’t come at me with a ruler and a scaled model of the Empire State Building. Or do—because I love a good LEGO debate. We’ll go set by set, breaking down what makes them great, where they fall in the rankings, and what sets them apart in a theme known for sharp lines and smarter-than-average builds. But we’re not stopping at the best—oh no. Because let’s face it, not every Architecture set is a masterpiece. Some… well, let’s just say some are more “meh” than “magnificent.” So, I’ll also be calling out a few of the worst offenders. You know the ones—the sets that feel less like iconic buildings and more like someone gave up halfway through the instructions. So, am I spot-on with these picks, or completely off the grid? That’s for you to decide. But either way, by the end of this episode, you’ll walk away with a deeper appreciation for the LEGO Architecture theme, a few new favorites to track down, and maybe even a burning desire to build your own brick-built cityscape. Thanks for listening, and as always—whether you’re Team Skyline or Team Landmark, keep building! Music Credit: YouTube Music Library

Welcome back to another episode of BrickCast, where today we’re diving deep into a brand-new subtheme in the LEGO Marvel universe that has fans raising eyebrows, scratching heads, and double-checking their bank accounts. That’s right, we're talking about the all-new Marvel Busts series. Leading the charge are the Iron Man MK4 and the Iron Spider—and let’s just say, they’ve got people asking some big questions. Are these bold new builds worthy additions to your Marvel collection? Or are they just overpriced imposters trying to sneak in with the iconic LEGO helmet line? I’m putting these builds under the microscope—examining the design, the detail, the displayability, and yes, that eye-watering price tag. Because if LEGO thinks they can slap a few pieces on a stand and call it art, we’re going to have a few words. But what if… just maybe… this is the beginning of something huge? I’ll share my thoughts on where this bust concept could be heading. Could we see a line of Marvel villains next? Maybe some DC crossover potential? I’m breaking down all the possibilities and where LEGO might (or might not) take this new collectible direction. But that’s just the tip of the brick-built iceberg. We’ve also got big news from a galaxy far, far away, because May the 4th is coming in hot—and with it, an army of Star Wars sets that may leave your wallet trembling in fear. I’ve got the scoop on everything: updated piece counts, adjusted prices, and some spicy takes to help you figure out which sets are worth your Republic credits. Whether you're eyeing the buildable Chopper, debating a few new BrickHeadz for your desk display, or considering taking out a second mortgage for Jango Fett’s not-quite-Slave-I starship, I’m here to help you make the right call. Still not enough LEGO goodness for you? Don’t worry—I’m just getting warmed up. In this episode, we also take a magical detour through the wizarding world for the latest on the new Harry Potter booknook (you’re going to want this on your bookshelf, trust me). Plus, I’ve got exclusive info on Vietnam factory exclusives that are making serious waves, and updated info about a massive new Batman set that might just steal the spotlight this year. There’s a ton to unpack, from Marvel to Middle-earth, from Gotham City to Brickheadz, and all the collectible corners in between. So, grab your favorite snack, clear off a little shelf space, and tune in for a packed episode filled with hot takes, fresh leaks, and enough LEGO news to build a Death Star. Thanks for hanging out with me—let’s get building. Music Credit: YouTube Music Library
